Except for Ms. Rudy, who received a pro rata amount of 750 shares of Common Stock because she joined the Board on January 9, 2012, each current non-employee director received 1,500 shares of Common Stock upon the filing of the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for its fiscal year ended June 30, 2012.
For fiscal year 2013, we do not anticipate any changes in the compensation structure applicable to the Company's non-employee directors.
